This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Mattermost integration.
mcp-server-mattermost
This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Mattermost integration. It connects to Mattermost API endpoints to retrieve and process various information, making it available through standard MCP transports.
Features
- Secure, token-based connection to Mattermost API endpoints
- Supports multiple transport modes:
stdiohttp-streamsse
- Search for messages across multiple Mattermost channels
- Customizable default channels and message fetch limits
Requirements
- Node.js >= 22
- npm >= 10
Setup
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/kakehashi-inc/mcp-server-mattermost.git
cd mcp-server-mattermost
- Install dependencies:
npm install
- Set up your environment variables:
Required Environment Variables
MATTERMOST_ENDPOINT: Your Mattermost server URLMATTERMOST_TOKEN: Your Mattermost authentication tokenMATTERMOST_TEAM: The name of the team to monitorMATTERMOST_CHANNELS: Comma-separated list of channel names to monitor
Environment Variable Setup Options
Option 1: Direct Environment Variables
export MATTERMOST_ENDPOINT="https://your-mattermost-server.com"
export MATTERMOST_TOKEN="your-token-here"
export MATTERMOST_TEAM="your-team-name"
export MATTERMOST_CHANNELS="general,random,dev"
Option 2: Using .env file (with dotenvx)
# Install dotenvx (optional)
npm install -g @dotenvx/dotenvx
# Create .env file
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env file with your values
# Encrypt your .env file (recommended for production)
dotenvx encrypt
- Build the server:
npm run build
Usage
The server supports three transport modes: stdio (default), sse, and http-stream.
Standard I/O Transport Mode
# Using npm scripts (with dotenvx)
npm run start:stdio
# Direct execution
node dist/main.js --transport stdio
# Using npx
npx mcp-server-mattermost --transport stdio
SSE Transport Mode
# Using npm scripts (with dotenvx)
npm run start:sse
# Direct execution
node dist/main.js --transport sse
HTTP Transport Mode
# Using npm scripts (with dotenvx)
npm run start:http
# Direct execution
node dist/main.js --transport http-stream
